They have an apointment today so she's hopeing they will let her come off of the pills Wednesday when she's 37 weeks but we think that they will keep her on the until Friday...will update after their apointment later this afternoon!

Ducki ~ my youngest was 3 weeks early and everything was ok with him... So be prepared to set an extra set at the Thanksgiving table next week!!!

I'll be playing with the baby the heck with cooking! I figure the 23rd would be a nice day for her to arrive since it is my bday and my MIL's bday. charli just wishes it was her bday too then it would really be cool. However, she was a June baby and Idt she wants to wait that long!

Charli would prefer now but that's a bad option per her doctor - the 19th would also be a wonderful day for her to come! My Grandma that raised me and passed away several years ago was born on the 19th! I just want a healthy happy granddaughter that's the most important thing!

well they said i could stop taking them today but she would like to see me take them till friday.. she said she can tell they make me feel like crap but she would like me to finish out the week but if i couldnt i could stop taking them today so i figured i would compromise and stop tomorrow or thursday since tomorrow is 37 and doc said he wanted me on till i was 37 weeks.. and thats about all they said..

Well even though they don't make you feel to great, try and take them as long as you can. You want Kaylee to stay put as long as possible. You don't want to run the risk that her lungs aren't developed etc and she ends up in the NICU for the first weeks of her life.

Better safe than sorry.

I know sitting around isn't much fun either.

I'm sure mom has expressed this over and over! Sorry to be another mom!!

I counted my $5 todays, I have a total of $670. Not too bad! I am taking it out on Black Friday. I have a lot of gifts bought already. I think January 1-Black Friday is a good time for the savings. I will let you know what I end up with next week. I am stumped for gifts for my oldest. If anyone has any ideas, lmk

Is he going away for college or staying local and living at home? You could look for a college survival guide type book for fun.

My DD's 17th b-day is next week and she says she needs a new iPod (hers stopped working). I hinted to FIL, so I need to find out if he got her one or not. Otherwise that might be one of her Christmas gifts. She likes to read and has a Nook. I tell people to get her Barnes and Noble GC's so she can buy ebooks for her Nook.

Does he like to read a lot? There are a lot of eBook readers out there.

I have pretty much done gift certificates for movies, walmart, and restaurants for my kids since they have been older. I tried the clothes route but it seems I'm not so good at that one! LOL You could always wrap the gift cards in boxes with bricks so he has something to open that will surprise him! LOL The last year my kids graduated they both got some apartment stuff and that seemed to go over pretty well too. Black Friday you can get all kinds of sandwich makers and such for a couple bucks.....probably no help but I tried....

Ducki ~ That sucks that the upper-ups know your supervisor is rotten and doesn't do anything about it... Oh well, enjoy your "retirement"!!!

~ My grandma is 99, Mom is 72 and I'm 42... So I'm thinking I have another 8+ years before the tables are turned and I start taking care of her... And since you're kids are only 18 and 21, you've got a long way to go before you start getting waited on... Sorry!!!

Pia ~ my oldest is 15 and she tells me what she wants for Christmas... Works for me... I'd rather get her stuff she wants than stuff she doesn't... She gets another of that on her dad's side of the family... They ask her what she wants and then they buy her everything except what she asked for... Happiness is not in that family's vocabulary!!! All of the Christmas presents she got last year from his side were donated to Goodwill because it was all stuff she didn't want, didn't like, wasn't her style or didn't fit... And that family doesn't believe in giving gift receipts so the unwanted gift can be exchanged for something else... Ok, enough about that family because I'm getting pissed just from typing about them!!!!

~ And you rock on your $5 bill savings!!! Have fun on Black Friday... Think of me at 5am because I'll still be in my nice warm bed sound asleep!!!

Nat ~ Iowa City High plays for the state championship on Friday night at the dome... Go Little Hawks!!!

We too usually get them one big gift. I need the same # of gifts under the tree, we really don't but I like too. It is hard because stuff for the little one is cheap! I bought itunes gc last weekend at wal mart $35 for the $50 one! He has only asked for the ps3, they are not outrageously expensive, so it may be that, then everyone else can get him stuff to go with it. I am pretty close to being done for the younger two. Then of course my youngest turns 6 on the 28th of December.

Nope I got you beat....45

I like to try and have the same number of gifts too. DD1's gifts keep getting smaller and smaller (size wise) but I tell her that they cost more! She would notice if the other two got more gifts than her. The other two don't even notice.

Man I did some purging in the kitchen today. I have those desk cubbies in my kitchen and they were very full. I found a Christmas card from my FIL with two gift cards inside that I forgot about! Whoo Hoo! $100 each and a $50 Macy's GC and DD1's $15 iTunes GC she got last year. I threw away a lot of stuff, too.
